The training session with Tzirret was more than enough to get Gallus' mind off the prisoners. He did not go easy on Tzirret this time, spending much of the time with drills and exercise to catch up with what they hadn't had time for previously. Tzirret's abundant time spent with Ma'tanza showed through as a severe lack of practice.

Despite the intensity, the two still had time to talk. Gallus made sure to apologise for his being too busy to talk previously. With all that had been going on and all the worries that had arisen, Tzirret had quite a few things that he wanted to seek guidance on. The proximity to the time that the warband headed out made their catch-up very opportune.

The latter part of the training included a lesson in beast form for Tzirret. This also helped to alleviate his stress and sate its desires on an imp and a chunk of meat. Gallus had a laugh when he conveyed the advice for alternative means of dealing with beast spirit instinct. Tzirret was many things when he heard Gallus' explanation, but entertained was not one of them.

Gallus had just finished dressing after a bath by the time Ri'vashi found him. He was actually combing his hair in front of a polished metal shield when she found him.

"Hm?" Gallus turned around with curious wide eyes. "Ah, clan leader." He lowered his voice and then lowered his hands from his hair, "That is good to hear. I was about to head up to see for myself. Were there any surprises?"
